A painter, printmaker and sculptor, Pierre Soulages
was born at Rodez, Aveyron in France. Influenced by the Celtic
carvings in the local museum and by the Romanesque art and architecture
of that region, he began to take an interest in art and began
to paint. He went to Paris in 1938, where he saw the exhibitions
of Picasso and Cézanne, and briefly studied at the Ecole
des B (showing 500 of 13676 characters). |
